Note this from vmstat(1M):

     Without options, vmstat displays a one-line summary  of  the
     virtual memory activity since the system was booted.

In other words, the first line of vmstat output is some value that
does not represent the current state of the system.  Try this instead:

$ vmstat 1 2
 kthr      memory            page            disk          faults      cpu
 r b w   swap  free  re  mf pi po fr de sr m0 m1 m2 m1   in   sy   cs us sy id
 0 0 0 12371648 5840200 30 93 14 1 1  0  0  0  1  0  5  711 2258 1257  1  0 98
 0 0 0 9581336 2987584 61 69 0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  543  972  518  0  0 100

>From a free memory standpoint, the current state of the system is very
different than the typical state since boot.
